I tried with dm and md as a module using initramfs now also without luck
and upgrading/downgrading udev,dmsetup,cryptsetup,lvm2 to
lenny,testing,unstable (all at once back and forth) to see if that helped
also i tried a kernel option i found on the net something like
DM_IOCTL_V4=y
but the kernel config just deleted it.
cannot seem to get it to work, tried compiling the kernel a few times also.

With a new compiled kernel from kernel.org 2.6.30 and

device-mapper ioctl: error adding target to table
table: device 9:0 too small for target
table: 253:11: linear: dm-linear Device lookup failed
device-mapper: reload ioctl failed: Invalid argument
I have everything compiled into the kernel, also DM, not as module.
but it did say:
12 logical volume(s) in volume group st1500 now active
and i can see them in /dev/mapper
if i tried to mount each of them it said:
mount: you must specify the filesystem type
or some other weird error message
i do have xfs in my kernel and can mount other xfs filesystems
but all my dm filesystems fail for some reason
Here is my config
root@mlap:~/mfs# grep CONFIG_DM .config
CONFIG_DMI=y
# CONFIG_DM_DEBUG is not set
CONFIG_DM_CRYPT=y
# CONFIG_DM_SNAPSHOT is not set

Any ideas what I am missing ?
mdadm is active on the raid, 10 of 10 disks are up and
/dev/mapper/st1500-bigdaddy exists, i just cannot mount it,
i could do this before kernel and system upgrade
(i use an other lenny install now, but i updated udev,dmsetup,
cryptsetup,lvm2 to most recent versions on it)
